   Areas affected...Much of western Texas

   Concerning...Severe Thunderstorm Watch 159...

   Valid 222224Z - 230000Z

   The severe weather threat for Severe Thunderstorm Watch 159
   continues.

   SUMMARY...The severe threat continues across Severe Thunderstorm
   Watch 159. Large hail and severe gusts are the main threats.

   DISCUSSION...Multiple supercells have developed ahead of the dryline
   across western TX, some with a history of severe wind and hail. At
   the moment, the strongest storms are progressing across southern
   parts of the TX Panhandle and the Trans Pecos region. The supercell
   across Pecos County TX has rapidly intensified in the last hour and
   has been exhibiting deviant rightward motion. This storm has the
   best chance at producing a tornado over the next hour or so.

   Storms may continue to develop across western TX, with storm mergers
   potentially supporting cold pool intensification and perhaps a
   greater severe gust threat this evening.
